White Sox ace Lance Lynn will miss the start of the season after an MRI revealed a slight tear in a tendon in his right knee, general manager Rick Hahn announced on Sunday.
Lynn will undergo a brief procedure on Tuesday and will not be on the mound for at least four weeks. He’s expected to miss closer to six to eight weeks of the regular season.
“It’s part of the game,” Hahn said Sunday afternoon. “I know we have a very deep and talented roster. Like every club, we’re going to face some adversity over the next seven months. The strength of the men in that clubhouse and coach’s room will serve us well.”
